Definitions
- the disclosure relates to an impact modifier and a polymer composition comprising the same.
- the impact resistance comes from the constituent crosslinked, low glass transition (T g ) rubber.
- T g crosslinked, low glass transition
- the characteristics of this rubber directly affect the ability of the modifier to provide ductility in a base polymer during impact.
- One of these characteristics is crosslink density because it controls the stiffness of the rubber and its ability to cavitate.
- the crosslink density is controlled by the addition of a crosslinker into the low T g polymer.
- the distribution of the crosslink density is directly proportional to the distribution of the crosslinker in the rubber.
- the rubber is also often made with a shot process, whereby all the monomer is charged to the reactor and then its polymerization is initiated, in order to keep the standing monomer concentration high and the branching in the rubber low; therefore, the crosslinker distribution, and thus, the crosslink density distribution is entirely dependent on the reactivity ratios of the rubber monomer and crosslinker.
- Butyl, ethyl, 2-ethylhexyl and other acrylic esters are often the rubber monomers of choice, and either a multi-functional acrylate or allyl methacrylate (ALMA) are often the crosslinkers of choice.
- ALMA has the advantage of different reactivities of the allyl double bond and the methacrylate double bond. Therefore, ALMA produces less backbiting loops in the rubber and more graftlinks to the shell.
- the higher reactivity of the methacrylate double bond in ALMA compared to that of the acrylate double bond causes the crosslink density to be high at the beginning of each shot and then decrease to zero at the end of the shot.
- EP0927616 discloses an impact modified PVC exhibiting improved low temperature fusion.

Description
- The disclosure relates to an impact modifier and a polymer composition comprising the same.
- In an impact modifier, the impact resistance comes from the constituent crosslinked, low glass transition (Tg) rubber. The characteristics of this rubber directly affect the ability of the modifier to provide ductility in a base polymer during impact. One of these characteristics is crosslink density because it controls the stiffness of the rubber and its ability to cavitate. Often, in an impact modifier, the crosslink density is controlled by the addition of a crosslinker into the low Tg polymer. The distribution of the crosslink density is directly proportional to the distribution of the crosslinker in the rubber. The rubber is also often made with a shot process, whereby all the monomer is charged to the reactor and then its polymerization is initiated, in order to keep the standing monomer concentration high and the branching in the rubber low; therefore, the crosslinker distribution, and thus, the crosslink density distribution is entirely dependent on the reactivity ratios of the rubber monomer and crosslinker.
- Butyl, ethyl, 2-ethylhexyl and other acrylic esters are often the rubber monomers of choice, and either a multi-functional acrylate or allyl methacrylate (ALMA) are often the crosslinkers of choice. ALMA has the advantage of different reactivities of the allyl double bond and the methacrylate double bond. Therefore, ALMA produces less backbiting loops in the rubber and more graftlinks to the shell. However the higher reactivity of the methacrylate double bond in ALMA compared to that of the acrylate double bond causes the crosslink density to be high at the beginning of each shot and then decrease to zero at the end of the shot. Thus, there is a need for a more effective crosslinker to use in an acrylic impact modifier made by the shot process.

- Components were added using the standard protocol for PVC powder blending in a Henschel-type blender. The resulting powder blends were allowed to stand for at least 24 hours at room temperature. A portion of the powder (usually about 220 grams) was then melt processed in an electric two-roll mill (COLLIN Mill Type # WW 150 p). The mill temperature was set at 190 °C with the front roll mill speed at 26 RPM and the back at 21 RPM. The polymer blend was melt processed for a total time of 5 minutes after fusion occurred. The sample was then placed in a 0.125 inch x 8.5 inch x 10 inch mold, by suitably folding the mass, and pressed in a RELIABLE press at 190 °C for 3 minutes at 15 tons and then 2 minutes at 45 tons. Cooling was accomplished under 45 tons for an additional 3-4 minutes. Samples were cut into test strips with dimensions according to the ASTM D-256 standard, notched with a mechanical notching tool and allowed to equilibrate at room temperature for 24 hours
- Testing was carried out with a 50-lb hammer in an Izod pendulum tester. Twenty specimens per sample were tested. The results were divided into brittle breaks and ductile (hinged) breaks, depending on whether, respectively, the sample hit by the hammer was cleanly broken into two portions as the crack traveled through the notch or if the sample remained as a single entity, where the two portions divided by the crack remained connected by a "hinge" of the plastic material. The percentage of ductile-type breaks for each set of specimens was recorded. If any anomalies, such as an observable delamination, were detected after the specimen was broken, that particular specimen was disregarded from the final calculations and the percentage of ductile breaks corrected accordingly.
